본 연구는 OECD 국가인 호주, 뉴질랜드, 스웨덴, 노르웨이, 영국, 한국의 국가수준 영유아보육과 정의 실행 관점을 '충실도', '상호적응', '생성'의 관점에서 비교 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 비교의 내용은 각국 영유아보육과정의 명칭, 문서의 목적, 학습 및 발달 목표, 적합성 검토 방법, 자체 영유아보육과정 수립의 자율성, 영유아보육과정 설계 과정, 실행자료 지원의 7가지 영역이다. 분석 결과 우리나라를 제외한 국가의 영유아보육과정의 실행은 '상호적응'과 '생성'의 관점에 기반으로 하고 있으나, 우리나라 국가수준 영유아보육과정은 '상호적응'의 관점에서 실행을 지향하고 있으나 현장에서는 '충실도'의 관점에서 실행이 일어나도록 하고 있다. 향후 개발될 0-5세 통합 국가수준 영유아보육과정은 '충실도'의 관점을 벗어나 '상호적응' 혹은 '생성'의 관점에서 실행될 수 있도록 그 관점을 확대시킬 필요성이 제기된다.

유보연계형 인정어린이원은 유치원과 보육소의 일체화 시설로서 2013년 현재 595개가 설치되어 있으며, 이를 더욱 확산시키고자 일본정부는 2012년에 인정어린이원법을 개정하고, 2014년 4월에는 유보연계형 인정어린이원의 설비 운영의 기준 및 보육, 교육내용을 발표하였다. 유보연계형 인정어린이원의 설비 및 운영의 기준은 유치원과 보육소의 기준보다 높은 기준을 적용하고 있다. 따라서 현재 유치원과 보육소에서 제공하고 있는 보육의 질적 수준은 유지될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 그러나 보육, 교육내용의 경우, 초등학교 교육의 준비단계로서의 교육적인 면을 지나치게 강조하였다. 0-5세의 영유아가 하루생활의 대부분을 유보연계형 인정어린이원에서 생활하게 된다는 점을 고려해 볼 때, 양호적인 측면의 내용이 한층 보강되어야 할 것이다.

본 연구는 2017년 개정된 일본 영유아 교육·보육과정의 구성체계와 개정중점을 탐색해 보는데 그 목적이 있다. 첫째, 2017년 개정 고시된 3기관(유치원, 보육소, 유보연계형 인정어린이원)의 영유아 교육·보육과정 구성체계는 다소 차이가 있으나 그 특성에 따라 보다 구체화하였으며, 공통적으로 개정중점을 같은 방향에서 제시하고 있다. 둘째, 교육·보육과정의 개정중점은 유아기까지 길러야 할 3가지 자질·능력을 정립, 10가지 유아상을 명확히 하고 있다는 점과 길러야 할 자질·능력과 유아상을 실천하기 위하여 커리큘럼·메니지먼트의 확립을 강조하고 있다는 점이다. 유아상에 제시한 내용이 영유아의 발달에 적합한지와 교사의 자율권을 보장하지 못하면서 지나치게 커리큘럼·메니지먼트의 확립을 강조하고 있지 않는지에 대한 교육·보육관계자들의 검토가 필요한 것으로 보인다.

유보통합이 진행중이다. 이에 따라, 0~5세 영유아교육과정 개발이 필요하다. 2024년 6월 유보통합 실행계획안이 발표되었다. 0~5세 영유아교육과정 운영이 제시되었다. 0~2세와 3~5세 교육과정이 내용에서 비슷하며 동일한 기준으로 개발되었기 때문에 합쳐지는 것이 자연스럽다. 교육과정을 합칠 때 교육과정의 내용, 교원 자격, 재정을 함께 고민할 필요가 있다. 0~5세 영유아교육과정이 개발됨에 따라 교원자격도 0~5세 영유아교사로 설정되어야 한다. 연구의 결론은, 먼저, 교육과정을 0~5세 영유아교육과정으로 일원화한다. 다음으로, 0~5세 영유아교육과정을 가르칠 교사들은 0~5세 영유아교사로 양성해야 한다.

The interview was conducted three times. The interviewed data were categorized and compared. Results: The action competence of the play-centered curriculum required for early childhood teachers were categorized into the following categories; comprehending play, recognizing play, and practicing child-centered play. Detailed factor competencies were required for understanding play, reflective thinking, reading play, recording play, playing like a child, and supporting play.

Teacher's practical knowledge is potentially relevant to the teaching practice in his/her classroom. The research explored early childhood teachers' practical knowledge of 'curriculum' via conceptual metaphors. The participants (N=348) completed a prompt, "Curriculum is like A because B" and then the metaphors were analyzed according to the procedure proposed by Moser (2000). The analysis found that 8 themes (i.e. 'educational basis', 'learning opportunity', 'educational material', 'difficulty', 'change', 'pre-determination', 'discordance', and 'reconstruction') were the underlying conceptions signified in those metaphors. The implications regarding early childhood teachers' practical knowledge were discussed on the perspective of post-modern curriculum. Moreover, it recommended the practical knowledge based approach for early childhood teacher education, and transformation of current policy for program evaluation relevant to curriculum conceptualization.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop an early childhood teacher's autonomy scale in the implementation of the Early Childhood Curriculum and to verify its validity and reliability. Methods: A literature review and a delphi survey were conducted in order to explore conceptual characteristics and develop a preliminary questionnaire. A main survey was conducted on 375 early childhood teacher to test their item quality, validity and reliability. Results: The final scale was composed of 24 items with four factors: 'support for child-centered play environment and interaction' (7 items), 'use of learning community' (4 items), 'cooperation and participation with family and local community' (6 items), and 'flexible daily management' (7 items). And the scale was verified as a stable and reliable tool. Conclusion/Implications: This is expected to contribute to the correct understanding of children's education and to actively realize the autonomy of early childhood teachers in the implementation of the Early Childhood Curriculum.

This study explored the contents of practical knowledge about educational planning in early childhood curriculum as constructed by kindergarten teachers at early career stages and then developed a collaborative model of educational planning. Subjects were 6 teachers at early career stages. Using the ethnographic method, data were collected by in-depth interviews. Research outcomes were : (1) teachers specifically worked on 'difficulties in adapting to the teaching job', 'age of children that the teacher cares for', 'integration of theory and practice', and 'variety of actual teaching situations.' (2) A model for collaborative educational planning was constructed on the basis of review of the literature on teachers' knowledge, educational planning for early childhood curriculum, and learning of community.

A large sample (1090) of randomly selected early childhood education professionals and government officials rated each of the 133 standards of "A Model for Institutional Accreditation for Early Childhood Education and Care"(Yang, 1999) on a scale of 1 (least important) to 5 (most important). Findings were that all kindergartens and child care centers should be evaluated for accreditation every 3 years with 3-6 months for self-study and on-site validation visits by representatives of the appropritates agencies for 1-2 days. Evaluation results are should be used by institution personnel as a guide to self-supervision, by government officials as a funding standard and by parents as criteria of program quality. Essential accreditation standards included: facilities and equipment; curriculum; nutrition, health and safety; administration and management; and support systems. Safety and teacher-child interactions were most highly rated while parent involvement was not highly rated.
